1t is thought that the immigration this
year will exceed 100000. The charac-
ter Of the immigration has greatly chang
ed of late years. Germany now sends us
about one. third as many settlers as she
did six or seven years ago, and Irish
immigration is falling of. Ireland and
Germany have disposed of their surplus
population for the present. Russia,
Austria, Hungary and Italy show an
immense increase. Of the new corners
the Russians present rather the best ap.
pearance, being tall, vigorous, and with
an air of resolution. They are chiefly
from the grain growing regions of the
Black Sea.

AS Good as Wheat.

Tuesday Mr.. Major Lewis gave us a
slice of loaf bread made by his wife from
Clark's corn. 1t was equal to bread
made from good quality Of wheat flour
and in appearance and taste identical.
The -four corn was grown by Mr.. s. F.
Roberts and was ground and bolted at
Gaines mill. The corn will yield fifty
pounds of -four to the bushel, and will
yield one hundred bushels to the acre on
good land when properly cultivated. 1t
yields twice as much fodder as ordinary
corn. It was originally propagated by

Rs EDlIoR The late decision of the

3of married women Ito mortgage their

shas excited 9 great deal of unfavorable
criticism. Bns INFO fortunately, the most
osss thesa critics are interested parties

opinions Of others better Yersed than
ourselves in legal law, I'VE have always
:;thoughs that the decisions of the lower
SCont.s legalizing such mortgages, was
gcontrary 70 The spirit ard plain intent of

sEhink, was the Interpretation given to
tito lawiinsths earlier judicial decisions,
Immediately succeeding the establish,
sment of the present Constitution. And
sthes confusion and loss, incident to the
present decision Of the Supreme Court,
sis:not justly chargeable thereto, but nust
|1est with those earlier decisions, which
departed from the plain Interpretation Of
sthe IAN ID legalizing mortgages as
llxsainst the homestead. The practice,
su1d such deciaions, has been a virtual.
5abfog ation Of the law, thus abolishing a
;sIinmans and beIefcient act intended for
sthei benefit Of women and children. The
slsts decision of che Supreme Court is
scsrtainiy ID accordance with the organic

This reply apparently severed all con
nection between the two bodies. Col. i
M. Rucker Immediately framed the fol
lowing resolution:
"Resolued, The Convention, having
heard the report of the committee ap
pointed by our brother, who withdrew
Yesterday evening from this body, regret,
that they find themselves unable t
accede to the proviso therein contained.
This resolution was seconded by Ex
Governor Manning.
Mr.. Haskell offered the following sub
stitute for the resolution:
"Resolved, That while The proposition
made by the withdrawing members can
not be accepted, this Convention offers
if they will return to reconsider th:
action taken since their withdrawal, tina!
they may have voice on all questions
and in all elections"
A member said that such action would
involve the doing of a great part of tho
business of the Convention over again.
Mr.. HASKELL said he understood that,
but he still would urge the adoption oil
his substitute.
DR.. Porter moved to lay Col. Haskell's
substitute on the table, which action was
taken by vote of 81 to II.
The resolution of Col. Rucker was
then passed, and the two bodies did not
speak another word to each other all day.
In fact, no further allusion was made to
the matter by the Convention except by
the Bishop in his parting address to the
Convention.
The Convention adjourned to meet in
Anderson on the first Wednesday in May
1888.

The mint officials say that the de,
mand for minor coins this year has
surpassed that OF any year within the
recollection OF the Oldest employee.
Last year $391,147 in cents, $552,.
$40 in nickels and 81, 900, 279. so in
dimes we're coined at Philadelphia.
and yet the mint is now $40, 600
short on orders Tor small coins, and
cannot catch up with the demand.
The increased demand for them is,
doubtless, due to the development Of
the country, and also to the fact that
they are used to an extent never
known before, especially in the south
and west.
